We love to celebrate our young readers!
Harry Potter’s fantastical rags-to-riches hero’s journey has been capturing readers’ imaginations for over 25 years now. Whether it’s the found-family friendships that fans love, the magical school, or the massive worldbuilding, J.K.
National Family Day (September 26) celebrates families of all types, backgrounds, and sizes. For this day, focus on the people who make your life meaningful! For anyone looking to spend quality time with their family, CGPL has a diverse collection of activities for checkout.
Today, September 13th, is Roald Dahl Day!
Summer reading might be over, but that doesn't mean the fun stops at the public library!
It’s our favorite time of the year: Summer Reading!
While we recommend loving your library ALL YEAR ROUND, there is a specific week dedicated to appreciating your community’s greatest resource: your local library! This year, celebrate National Library Week from April 23 - April 29.
We encourage reading throughout the whole year, but did you know that March 2nd is national Read Across America day? You might be asking, “but what does that mean?”
We all know February honors important celebrations like Black History Month, Chinese New Year, and Valentine's Day - but did you know February is also National Library Lovers Month? Now you do!
Everyone knows January is the time for making resolutions and learning new skills. Here at the library, we want to encourage that love of learning and exploring! Starting in January, we will be hosting a new monthly program for patrons ages 6-11, called Bite-Sized Chefs!
We’ve been working behind the scenes for months now, and it’s finally ready to unveil to all of our favorite people (just to be clear, that includes YOU).
Poke around our new site–we hope you love the fresh look and feel, plus some of the brand-new features we’ve added:
